Google 'William Sidis'.

Sidis's politics led to his participation in Boston's socialist May Day demonstration on May 1, 1919. The event, organized by socialist and anarchist groups, was intended as a peaceful protest against the Red Scare persecutions and in support of workers' rights.

Seems like he was a pretty cool dude.

I don't agree with your overall take on this matter of socialization, as we've established, but I concur that this Sidis guy seems like a pretty cool dude who had his life figured out and I have no goddamn clue what the person you're talking to thinks they're getting at lmao. Really wild to see someone get so heated about being asked to just state their opinion.
